@@The grues are wearing sunglasses and are thus unaffected by the light of your lantern. Big,@@
@@intimidating aviator shades.@@

@@You are carrying: 2 squirt guns, 1 dead Antharian dwarf hamster, 1 peanut butter and jelly sandwich@@
@@and 1 elven sword toothpick.@@

@@Implementor Mode is a password protected feature of ''Zork: Journey to the Center of the Trash Heap''.@@

@@Before the grues can blink, you do a midair backflip over the horde and toward the river. When they@@
@@turn around, they face a nonchalant adventurer facing them with chocolate super soakers akimbo,@@
@@thinking they are in for nothing but another snack. Boy are they mistaken.@@

@@You handily dispatch all two hundred grues in a slow motion action sequence set to techno music,@@
@@dispensing the chocolate with such velocity that the force of the liquid makes Swiss cheese of@@
@@the grues before many can even turn on their chainsaws. Chocolate covered Swiss cheese. Mm,@@
@@that actually sounds kind of good.@@

@@With the ease of a hole puncher perforating a pat of butter, you punch a hole in the miles of@@
@@bedrock above you, letting the light of the sun into the Stalagmite Gardens for the first time in@@
@@thousands of years.@@

@@You leap into the air and do not come down, but soar through the hole in the ceiling and toward the@@
@@stratosphere, fist pointing toward the sun. Treasure hunts in mazes are the fare of mortals.@@

@@With a snap of your fingers, a billowing scarlet cape materializes and fastens itself over your shoulders.@@

@@As your alter-ego the Dim Lantern, you become the empire's next great hero. You rescue hapless adventurers@@
@@like your former self from evil wizards and lurking grues, guide lost souls through the underground's@@
@@meanest mazes, and install wireless internet in the Mines of Mendon. No adversary is too great for@@
@@your whirling toothpicks.@@

@@With the ease of Superman punching through a square of toilet paper, you fly straight through the fourth@@
@@wall, dusting me with a cloud of smashed drywall as I look up from my C64 to see what is going on.@@
@@Shining with your godly majesty, you step out of the rubble and--hey, wait a minute. You can't@@

%%First of all, I'm going to assume that you already understand that adaptations are never better than the originals, but to the point:

%%It's not cute, it's not sympathetic, it doesn't make you any more of a catboy, so cut it out. I hate it when people abuse their senses of humor this way, thinking their jokes are harmless and affectionate when they're really dehumanizing those nearest and dearest to them when they do shit like this. When you talk that way about your friends, you may not know it, but it sounds to me like you're saying ''they'' ought to put on your jammies. Dorm etiquette, man. Learn it, and someday, you might be able to support your own health care.

%%Besides, the crude style of comedy in question went out of style in the 30s. Yep, even in the Great Depression, when resources were tight, a whole form of entertainment was spent--because it ''just wasn't funny.'' I'm anticipating objections from the "FDR and the Atheists did Fetishes" crowd, and I challenge them to:
%%* One: explain to me why they think such a conspiracy, if there was one, was such a bad thing.
%%* Two: ''man up.''

%%As well, it's blatantly camp homophobic. The use of only heterophones in the the centrally important iambic pentameter section to the exclusion of even the homophones that would be more concise and versatile additions to the song betrays a structure built to make a statement against people attracted to the same sex. ''And it's not even funny.'' I've been more amused by arguments about abortion, so I am for both women and men having the legal right to abort this fallacy. [[MarySue Death of the Author]] with a vengeance.

%%And worst of all, it's just lazy writing. Put some thought and time into your work and give us some sound quality that doesn't smell like pot. People with asthma will thank you. Transcend the [[InVinoVeritas Fan Dumb]].

%%Oh, and inb4 "What are you talking about?" and "What is 'it'?" I know what I'm talking about, and if you don't, maybe you should take a look at yourself. Maybe you should stop it, because ''it's not funny anymore.''

%%Statement that I put far too much freakin' time into that thing to just let it get purged. Non sequitur. Insistence that you mess up this page as much as you like. Note that adding tropes is, however, always the best.
